Survival Island Seeds

One of the most popular ways of starting a new Minecraft survival world is the ‘survival island’ style approach; seeing just how far you can advance from a humble island starting point.

Survival Islands often have relatively limited resources immediately to hand and players try to test their skills by relying only on what’s immediately accessible – as if stranded on the Island without hope of rescue.

The following seeds are all great picks for that stranded desert island vibe – and are all Minecraft 1.13 and 1.14 confirmed.
